V^yis always up to
their ears in trying to
organize events, such as
movie previews,
Homecoming and one
of the most popular
events, local bands' performances.
It's not unusual to
walk over to the UC
Satellite for lunch or to
meet friends and hear
music growing
louder and
louder as you
approach.
When you
finally reach
your destination, low and
behold there's
a live band
cranking out the
tunes just for students to
enjoy.
The bands are all local
from around Houston
and they come to UH to
perform at the request
oftheSPB.
It's a relationship that
works, because the SPB
Sina- luUnmc
Local band, Faceplant performs fH^enjoyment of students having lunch at the UC
Satellite.

LOCAL BANDS FILL THE AIR
WITH THE SOUNDS OF MUSIC

viding entertainment for major said,
students and the local Well, no matter who
bands get the exposure approved and who did-
that they need to grow.
Some of the bands
that perform have a
grunge take to their
music, and some students seem to enjoy the
entertainment.
Of course, not everyone can be satisfied and
so there are also plenty

of students who are disappointed or who would
prefer a different kind of
sound.
"It's not always what
you want to hear, but
it's nice that they come
out here to perform,"
Patrick Gonzales, a jun-
n't, the concerts went
on.
Local bands such as
Faceplant, Gonehlind
and the Westhury
Squares all performed
during lunch time at the
UC Satellite.
Sometimes what's
even more interesting is
the way the
bands try to
promote themselves.
When
Faceplant performed they
had one member flash a hand
made sign with
the groups
name on it. They even
sell CDs of their music
to anyone who likes
their sounds.
It's not a common
way for students to
spend lunch, but it
works.
